thank you
0:13
for me it was
0:16
um because I suffer with irritable bowel
0:18
syndrome which I've had for for years
0:21
um and I particularly get it at periods
0:24
of high stress
0:26
and I was talking to my GP about it and
0:29
asking if there was anything cows that
0:33
could happen far from the medication
0:34
that I was taking
0:36
um and and they suggested
0:38
um this this wise course so I got into
0:41
contact with them have I assessment done
0:43
and and then and then got on the Sigmund
0:46
program
0:52
for me personally it's it's really
0:55
helped in in the sense that we've been
0:58
able to set action plans each week which
1:01
have been sort of like little goals and
1:04
that you set yourself and that you're
1:07
able to then work towards during the
1:09
week before the next session
1:12
um and those little action goals those
1:16
little action points so that there's a
1:18
really helped sort of
1:20
um feeding new habits for me
1:22
um healthy habits so things like going
1:25
for a walk by the Sea
1:28
um or
1:30
um writing little affirmations and
1:33
sticking them in a jar so that at the
1:34
end of the year I can open that jar and
1:36
have a look and see what I've written
1:37
and it just really sort of like focusing
1:40
on the positives of of life and
1:44
um really getting sort of
1:49
for me back to one with nature that
1:51
that's been the most important thing for
1:53
me
1:54
um but because as a whole has been
1:56
really good because there's
1:59
so much information out there and the
2:01
stuff that's taught on the course is no
2:04
different from the information that's
2:05
out there but what it does is that it
2:07
brings it all into one place into one
2:09
space
2:10
in a very safe space
2:13
um that that's created every week
2:15
um by the by the mentors
2:18
um and it's also been really good
2:19
because
2:21
um we've been working as a group and I
2:23
know that group work can sort of sound a
2:26
bit scary and can be can can put off
2:28
some people and I was a little bit um
2:30
unsure about it at the very beginning
2:34
but actually it's been one of the best
2:36
things ever is to is to work with people
2:39
who are from different backgrounds they
2:42
bring different ideas and thoughts you
2:45
share as much as you want to share or as
2:47
little as you want to share it's
2:48
entirely up to you and but to get
2:51
information and and ideas and feedback
2:54
from other people has been absolutely
2:56
invaluable and and that's what I would
3:00
um personally recommend to anybody who
3:02
was considering coming on the wise
3:03
course
3:05
um you really do you really do help
3:08
support each other and there's a lot of
3:10
camaraderie and friendships have been
3:13
created as well
3:14
um which has been which has been really
3:16
good
3:17
um
3:18
and I just think that uh
3:22
in terms of creating a safe space and
3:25
and and an environment where people can
3:28
feel supported
3:31
for me personally I've been able to
3:35
take less medication I've been feeling
3:38
less stressed about things I've had a
3:41
lot of
3:42
um
3:43
quite deep personal things happen during
3:46
the six months course you know in in my
3:49
own life and I think that I would have
3:53
handled differently
3:55
um if I hadn't been on this course this
3:57
course has really taught me how to how
3:59
to deal with
4:01
um
4:02
challenging events
4:04
um in my own personal life
4:06
and I think that's been down to setting
4:09
these action lines each week and and
4:12
just adhering to those and and having
4:15
the support from everybody else
4:19
well
4:24
one of the things that the the course
4:26
teaches you is
4:28
um a whole load of a whole load of tools
4:31
in a tool kit and so there's lots of
4:33
things in there that that you can take
4:35
with you such as
4:37
um meditation
4:39
um you know to
4:42
their various things but one of the
4:44
things I'm going to take is that is is
4:46
making the action plans so
4:50
each week
4:52
however I'm feeling
4:54
I've now got a whole series of actual
4:57
plans and action points that I can that
4:59
I can use in my own life
5:02
um in order to sort of
5:04
um relieve those appearance of stress so
5:07
that's what I'm going to take forward
5:10
um other tools that I've learned
5:13
from that toolkit
5:20
absolutely 100
5:23
um
5:24
you know it's not only beneficial for
5:26
all the things I've said before but also
5:28
as well it helps to reduce the strain on
5:32
the NHS I've been going to the GP less
5:36
um for me I've been able to take less
5:37
medication which has been fantastic so
5:40
I'm saving the NHS time and money and it
5:44
also
5:45
um benefits benefits me as well
5:49
um so definitely I definitely recommend
5:51
it to anybody who's thinking about it
5:53
and just
5:54
even if you're unsure all I will say is
5:57
just give it a go
5:59
there's no harm in coming on trying it
6:02
and and if it doesn't work for you
6:04
that's fine at least you're giving it a
6:06
go but just give it a go
